Wow
I’ve been going in and out all day listening to the different retellings and rebroadcastings of the Lunar Landing. It is so amazing that we, man, did that with the limited tools that we had at the time. The girls, while they were around have been getting an earful that is for sure. So the … Continue reading
Fly Me to The Moon
Two weeks ago I came up with a great idea to have a party for the fortieth anniversary of the moon landing! Man, two weeks goes by fast! Having not realized that days were actually passing, I got to Saturday and said, “Aw Sacagewea.” I was going to have homemade moon pies for desert and … Continue reading
The Bluest, I Tell Ya
Scroll and read while listening, it’ll kill two birds. Perry’s got it right But I’m not so sure about my weather gadget on my computer. Because this is what it showed when I came in on Friday morning at about ten-thirty after Bet and I could no longer stand the heat in the Highway Garden. … Continue reading
Crumb-day-la-crumb or Just Plain Phooey
I did not get very far. Headed out to visit y’all but every blog I opened wouldn’t let me comment (is that a subtle hint from y’all or what?) or close the window so now after shutting down my internet a couple of times I’ll just quit. Besides the cacophony of calls from the work … Continue reading
Hey, Is That Ketchup on Your Shirt?
I think it may be. I think I am as caught up as I will ever be. No not on housework, duh, not on the garden and not on much of anything but blog reading. ‘Cept that I hear there are a few new blogs out there that I ought to read and so off … Continue reading
Ad Addendem
Please note Dear Reader, that in the post where I exposed my fond desire for a Dear Grandmamma, I did my best to point out that it isn’t just Dirt that is in need of extra care. I am most likely the household’s largest slob and project spreader-outter. It is just that when you add … Continue reading
A Flag On the Ceiling and a Promise Kept
I made a promise a moment ago to a new friend, A_Joyful_Chaos, (a blog well worth the read for sure) that I would attend to an award she bestowed upon me over a week ago. And even though the pumpkin patch is growing hotter by the moment I am going to take care of this … Continue reading
Another Day Off
No not me, Dirt. I don’t work therefore I don’t need a day off or a vacation. Dirt teaches aviation mechanics at the college so he gets vacations (aka end of quarter breaks) and national holidays off. Last week, when I was completely absent the college ended spring quarter and began summer quarter, consequently Dirt … Continue reading
Hang On Just a Little Longer
Unbeknownst to Dirt and the girls, I snuck away from all the work in order to sit down at the computer because the pressure in my brain was finally too great. Unfortunately I have waited too long and my brain burst with a million things to write just as I headed to the computer. So … Continue reading
Hate To Leave You Hanging
I’m sorry this picture is so fuzzy but in a way it rather fits. This is high up in one of our many many cottonwood trees on the Farm (high up and a small little camera is why it is fuzzy). The “cotton” hangs in great clumps awaiting a breeze to launch itself to swirl … Continue reading
